I have a drawer full of handmade backgrounds that I've decided I need to use. This particular one was was made with distress inks and a gold sparkly spray. I can't remember the exact technique, but it involves cling wrap. I think you put the medium on the wrap, spritz with water, put water color paper on top and sort of squish it around?
Anyway, I used the background to create a little scene of a lion on the savanna, I guess. This is a really old set, called Mindy's Zoo from Autumn Leaves. (I just checked, and it's available on Ebay.) I love the adorable animals it includes.

This is a very sweet card, Sandy! I love the fact that it is hand drawn, and your background is wonderful. I have used the cling wrap technique before and really love the results. I love your sentiment too. Thanks so much for playing along with us at Word Art Wednesday. We have a new challenge starting tomorrow and would love to have you join us again!
